Queen Of New Orleans

She said baby our love's just like your songsThe beat ain't bad but the words are all wrongIt's time to pack my bags, it's time to just move onShe sang Johnny I'm gone, gone, goneAnd she was gone

Me and Leigh met summer of '95In a burgundy dress lookin' finer than a French wineA Cajun queen with another sideShe was a schoolboy's dream, I was out of my mindShe was lookin' fineShe said: "You want to drive me home"But what I didn't know…

Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing in the street of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in New OrleansOoh, ooh - it was almost like a dream

That night I made a move, man I fell hardWhen I put my hands in her cookie jarShe was more than a girl, she was a cabaret starI was a deer in the light of speeding carNothing's what it seemsShe was a Venus de Milo in her sister's jeans

Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing in the street of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in New OrleansOoh, ooh - it was almost like a dream

Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing in the street of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing with the Queen down Bourbon Street

Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing in the street of New OrleansOoh, ooh - nothing's what it seems in New OrleansOoh, ooh - dancing with the Queen down Bourbon Street
